I have a 19 bit PN generator implementation in AVR code on my web site.
It's in the "getting started" firmware, under microcontrollers.
You shouldn't have any trouble porting it over to picish.

I would have a link to http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/find.cgi?KC6ETE-9 here
in my signature line, but due to the inability of sysadmins at TELOCITY to
differentiate a signature line from the text of an email, I am forbidden to
have it.
